Re: Interesting Post Across Street
Internet stupidity never ceases to amaze me. She's a breath of fresh air to a hobby riddled with scammers, thieves, cheats and liars. Why anyone would even question her gender is absolutely not worth an answer. I wish the hobby was full of people like her and not full of the people that has the feds walking the Nationals… -
Re: PayPal Help, please!!
if following PAYPALs rules, you should be alright most of us here are comfortable with $50 - $100 coins which makes us more cautious when handling something worth much more after looking at your inventory, it looks like you are comfortable with $5K - $30K coins but being worked over by a scammer, feels bad at any level -
Re: Can someone tell me if this A-Rod auto is real or not...
<< <i>I have no idea, seller claims it comes with a COA but neglects to say from whom. I dunno, I think I may have heard things regarding this seller too. Steve >> I agree Steve it looks very fishy and all of his auctions are private but he has pretty good feedback if he is a scammer. -
Re: I was just sent a fake ebay email that was really good!
Back when they first started coming in, I would go to the site and fill in the boxes with the most obscene profanity I could think of about the scammer's mother. Then I'd submit the data and flush my cookies and be done with it. I think they're more sophisticated now, and I no longer do that- I just forward them on to… -
Re: Ebay Authentication Thoughts
Exactly. And just because a card is from 2018 (just using that since the OP mentioned that year) does not mean it has not been trimmed / altered, in a counterfeit slab, a blatant counterfeit (every year of cards is being counterfeited - look at ETSY listings), not in the condition as described by the seller, etc. Many… -
Re: Updated in 1st post. Caution to all EBay account holders
Thx for the wsrning. I am still hung up.on the scammer "somehow gained access". There are devious minds at work and I hope the exact method for their activities can be determined. In the meantime, without the exact explanation, I'd be more concerned that your computer was hacked and they got your passwords by watching you… -
Re: Counterfeit PCGS slab on eBay? 1916-D Merc
I dont think its a scam , i took the bidding up to 1275 and still the reserve isnt met.Seems a scammer would set his sights low or have no reserve.Yes , i know its a 5k coin , but im thinking if its a known to be fake by the seller it might not have a high reserve. -
Re: I think I got screwed on a 1977 pack
Buy graded packs. Ungraded is a land mine to the untrained eye and even then without the pack in person its a coin flip proposition. So you can do the buy and send back game to find good ones but it does get annoying all the returns from the scammers selling "unopened" packs. -
Re: Any tips on identifying counterfeit Western Union Money Orders?<<<UPDATE>>>It was
The fake check or fake money order scam has been around for a long time. Usually the scammer will send a "check" for more than the amount and will want the mark (victim) to refund the money via Western Union or some other untraceable method. Here is a website with more details on this scam: http://www.fakechecks.org -
Re: Warning to Ebayers: Bad Buyer (Update)
Trinketts: Did you inform the buyer that it is common practice for the buyer to return the coin BEFORE any kind of refund is given? This seems like common sense, it would be funny to hear the buyer's excuse for why he want's to keep the coin too for now. Definitely seems like a scammer. *Blocked* Thanks.
